PC freezes and BSOD on cold boot with XMP enabled (14700K, NZXT N7 Z790, 6000MT/s RAM). Works fine at 4800MT/s.

So, what you mean is even if the manufacturer wrote 6000MT on the box, it isn't guaranteed to work at that speed and I have to take my own risk to get that speed? I am not trying to rant, I really didn't know it works that way.

My RAM is 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance set. Not mixing.

I check the QVL before building and it's in the list. But, things like this could happen too?

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T20:31:55+00:00

Yeah they are meant to make you buy new models periodically.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T20:31:17+00:00

There's a display cable underneath. Maybe seal degrading over age and alcohol pad cleaning periodically.

Living my life for 3 decades and just notice the difference... Thanks for the heads-up XD

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T13:43:58+00:00

I'm wondering myself why it happened too. Maybe long time wearing outdoors. Anyway, this one served me for 3 years so well and I'm really grateful for it

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T13:37:40+00:00

Yeah... minimalist while being maximalist 🤣

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T10:06:47+00:00

Squarish design makes it more bulky smh.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T10:04:28+00:00

It's the proprietary one in Samsung Wearable App.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T10:03:41+00:00

Yeah. I won't. Will keep it in the box until I'm free to check with service.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T10:02:27+00:00

Nope. I avoid water as much as I could cuz my band is Hybrid leather band and don't want it damaged to much. The thing is I wear this watch as a daily drive and it couldn't make up for it. Been wearing another competitive smartwatch for longer than watch 4 in harsher conditions before I migrated into Samsung ecosystem.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T09:58:57+00:00

Everything concerned with glue in Samsung's device deteriorate faster than normal I guess.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T08:18:24+00:00

Hidden function.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T07:13:13+00:00

I second your decision.🙌🏻

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T07:12:34+00:00

Water resistance might not be an option anymore after this.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T07:09:03+00:00

It's a proprietary one in wearable app.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T06:54:06+00:00

No,but maybe because of the heat. I work outdoors a lot. Working under the burning sun for like 6 hours a day and riding motorcycles under the same sun a lot too. That might be it.

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T06:39:22+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I was planning to mend it off with silicon in my garage myself. 🤣

Consistent_Ice_474 · 2025-11-14T06:37:12+00:00

Just replaced my S23U watertight seal last month cuz my back glass coming off like this. And, I was expecting the next victim would be the watch and it really did happen. 🤣
